Where are the scars located involving an Abdominoplasty?
This is not a scar-free surgery; in fact the scars may be quite severe depending upon the amount of skin needed to be removed, your body’s ability to heal, if you scar well, the skill of the surgeon and the technique utilized. Most surgeons choose to offer their patients lesser scarring techniques that leave a well-hidden horizontal or slightly bowed scar which can be covered by a standard bikini. We will discuss the incision types, techniques and placements at your consultation. Ideally, no scar would be wonderful, but that isn’t possible – yet.
